Frequently Asked Questions About Our Eco-Friendly Junk Recycling Services

Ready to get rid of your recyclable junk? It really is as simple as 1, 2, 3. Check out these frequently asked questions and then get in touch with Junk King to declutter your life responsibly.

  • We can help with a wide variety of removal and hauling tasks, such as:

    • Hauling services for large and bulky junk
    • House cleanouts for moving, spring cleaning, converting rooms, or downsizing
    • Trash removal for yard waste, construction projects, and cleaning projects
    • Property cleanouts for landlords and real estate agents
  • Disposing of used mattresses, box springs, and other large furniture items is difficult to do by yourself since they can’t be dumped at landfills. The reason for this is that they contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment.

    However, the good news is that even mattresses are recyclable. In fact, almost 90 percent of the materials in your old mattress can be recycled. Most furniture items are made of materials that can be broken down, recycled, or reused.

    Junk King provides professional mattress and furniture removal services. Junk King is a full-service mattress disposal company that provides an efficient and environmentally friendly way to recycle your mattress and bed springs.

  • Because there can be hazardous materials inside some furniture pieces, recycling is not always possible. But the good news is that most furniture can be recycled most of the time, with these exceptions.

    • Garden hoses
    • Sewing needles
    • Bowling balls
    • Food or food-soiled paper
    • Propane tanks or cylinders
    • Aerosol cans that aren’t empty
    • Certain plastics and glass
    • Batteries
    • Light bulbs
  • While pricing is certainly a deciding factor, it’s not always best to choose a junk removal company with the cheapest prices. Although you want to find one that is affordable, if a company is a bit pricier than others, you may get more value for your money. Avoid a junk removal company with the cheapest rates. Remember, you get what you pay for.

  • E-waste, also known as electronic waste, is a growing issue that poses both economic and environmental impacts. Mobile phones, for example, have up to a thousand components, many of which contain toxic heavy metals. So, don’t throw your old phone, batteries, and electronic devices in the trash. Have them recycled! We remove almost all types of e-waste, including:

    • Computers
    • Monitors
    • Printers
    • Copy Machines
    • Shredders
    • Televisions

    Not only that, we also ensure that your old electronics end up in the right place. Whether still-functioning electronics are donated to a charity or sent to a recycling facility, we ensure your e-waste is disposed of in an eco-friendly manner.

  • We provide an eco-friendly appliance removal service. You don’t have to haul your old appliances to the dump – Junk King can help you get rid of all of it, including your old dishwashers, refrigerators, stoves, ovens, ranges, washers and dryers, or heating and cooling equipment. Not only will we remove and haul away your old appliances, but we’ll also recycle them in an eco-friendly manner.

    Some appliances, such as refrigerators and air conditioning units, contain Freon and similar chemicals. These are solvents that are harmful to the environment and must be handled carefully. Freon must be collected by a recycling center before the appliance itself can be recycled.

  • While most recycling can be done for free, when it comes to large items like e-waste containing cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and certain other items, there are fees and other costs involved. In addition, if you must rent a truck to haul your large items away for recycling, those costs must be considered. A great alternative to doing it yourself, however, is to call a professional junk hauling service like Junk King. We offer free upfront pricing as part of our service.  

  • In most instances, Junk King will not take known hazardous materials or hazardous waste. These items should be handled through your local waste management provider or municipal agencies.

    Typically, household hazardous materials fall into one of four categories: corrosive, explosive, flammable, or poisonous. Containers or items that fall into these categories are usually labeled or marked accordingly. Cleaning products, varnishes, motor oil (or other automotive fluids), pesticides, herbicides, and paints are all considered hazardous waste and should not be placed in trash bins or dumpsters.

  • We know that you have choices when it comes to hiring a company to haul away your recyclable junk. So, what should you consider when choosing a junk recycling company?

    Can you find reviews of the company?

    Online reviews are readily available on most businesses, and you should check them out before making a decision. Have you been given referrals? If your referral source is a trusted friend or colleague, this can help you narrow down your options. The reputation of a junk removal company is often based on its customer service more than any other factor.

  • Whenever possible, you should avoid dumping your recyclable junk and waste into the waste stream. This means not putting these items into your household or office trash bins. It also means not taking these materials to your local landfill. And it definitely means not driving out to a remote stretch of road or an empty lot and simply dumping it there. That is both illegal and irresponsible.
